Needles

Hey everybody,
Here are some more that I finished recently. The top 4 are 6" pine needles at 1 1/2oz. The bottom one is my attempt at a super strike knock-off made out of mahogony that weighs around 1 3/4oz. Can't wait to catch some fish on them. Thanks for all the feedback on them. Enjoy!

Thanks...i'm working on some small spooks that I just drilled out. Should be ready soon.

I'm watching the Celtics right now! and i'm nervous! Eventhough i'm from Long Island, i'm a die-hard Celtic fan. I started watching basketball in 1986...what a Celtic team that was! The best starting 5 of all time.

Nice plugs. You might want to try twisting your tail loop 90 degrees and attaching the tail hook with a split ring. The plug usually casts better and fouls less.
